TEL AVIV

Most Famous People Born in Tel Aviv, Israel

Notable people: 911
Peak decade: 1940s

Most distinctive: Rabbi 11.8×

The Bauhaus beach city is essentially the secular twin of its uphill sibling, and the roster follows suit: a Rabbi bench running at better than eleven times the global baseline sits alongside disproportionate Conductor, Photographer, and Mathematician counts. Central European émigrés stepped off the boats in the 1930s with violins and proof techniques in their luggage, and the city never got over it.
